Strawberry Ice Cream with Pomegranate Molasses
- 3 cups hulled and chopped strawberries (about 1.5 lbs)
- 1/2 cup pomegranate molasses*
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup brown rice syrup** (a good sub would be maple syrup or honey)
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt (affiliate link)
- 1/2 vanilla bean, seeds scraped the inside (or use 1 teaspoon of good vanilla extract)
- 1–1/2 cups half and half
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
Instructions
- Mix strawberries, pomegranate molasses, brown sugar, and rice syrup, salt, and vanilla in a bowl, let rest for at least two hours at room temp, mash it up a little with a fork.
- Mix in half and half and cream. Chill for at least 8 hours or overnight.
- Add to ice cream maker, and churn for about 1/2 hour. Follow your ice cream makers instructions so you don’t overfill the vessel, it will expand a little bit, so don’t fill to the top.
- Place in containers and freeze, or heck. Eat it right away (my personal favorite way, nice and creamy)!
Notes
*Pomegranate Molasses is an intensely flavored tart syrup made from the pomegranate fruit, not to be mistaken for the typical molasses found in stores, this one packs a punch and is delicious!
** Brown Rice Syrup is a not too sweet syrup that is not as refined and processed as most corn syrups etc. Feel free to use real maple syrup or honey as a replacement.
